    Just wondering if this is common or not, I tried searching. The steering wheel is wacky when turning, not like I've seen in videos where it turns slow and smoothly. If I tap an arrow key the steering wheel goes to full lock and back very quickly, though it does not affect the performance of my car.

    That's because keyboard keys are on/off switches. With a controller or a steering wheel you can make the car turn smoothly, but with the keyboard you can only go "LEFT!" or nothing.

    We are going to add an optional dynamic steering assist for keyboard/controller users so it is not so jerky (similar to what games like GTA 4 and Forza have). We are just focusing on other things right now. You need to be extremely precise to drive well with the controller right now unfortunately :(
